A bold Easter egg for adults. It is not designed to be strong enough to hold up to play by children.
Not for commercial use. Please see license agreement.
This is relatively easy to print. Both pieces can be printed “right side up” so you can use 3-color filament or rainbow filament and have the colors match up. Because of the complex moves the printer has to make, it may need to be printed slower than other models.
To open the egg, hold the recessed regions of both halves, wiggle & pull apart. The outer portions of the egg and the joint are unsupported. Printed in PLA with my settings, they inward bend without breaking, but you should avoid twisting them so you don't break them. The bottom half has a slight ridge on 2 sides that clicks into a groove in the top. Because of that, it's easier to separate them wiggling in one direction than another. If wiggling one way doesn't work, try the other. It does get easier to open with use. When the pieces are together, hold one side and twist the other 360 degrees a few times and it will loosen up dramatically. You can also encourage it a little (if necessary) with a little sand paper.
